Went down to feed my bottle calf last night only to find him
bloated. Gave him a good dose of mineral oil. This morning
he was up and ready for his milk and I thought all was good
until I looked at his belly. He has very noticeable swelling
from his navel to his testicles.
Could this be a hernia? I called two vets and was informed
to bring him in next week. I guess vets around here dont
work weekends. They said that if he could do his bodily
functions that he would probably be all right till then.
The calf was feeling good this evening for his supper and
drank every drop. What do you guys think?
